Re: [Quickfixj-users] USER DEFINED FIELDS!!

[Toli K. <to...@ma...>]

Mohammad,

You can set the custom fields manually like this:
   msg.setField(new StringField(7777, "customValue"));

Or you can use a type other than StringField.

Keep in mind that if you want your message to validate, you'll need to
modify the FIX4x.xml file appropriately and specify that in your
settings where you specify the data dictionary file.

Here's an example of a custom field we created:
http://trac.marketcetera.org/trac.fcgi/browser/platform/trunk/core/src/main/java/org/marketcetera/quickfix/customfields/NoMarketDataSnapshots.java

You can also look through our OrderLoader code to see how it handles
cutsom fields and injects them into messages:
http://trac.marketcetera.org/trac.fcgi/browser/platform/trunk/orderloader/src/main/java/org/marketcetera/orderloader

Hope this helps.
